The Cali76 is regarded as one of, if not the best footswitch compressor available on the market today. The pedal was designed in order to give you a useable, high-quality compressor, without too much messing around with knobs that are hard to understand.

Origin Effects modelled their compressor after the famed 1176, and even matched the compression curves from their pedals to the 1176.

Ratio Switch

Origin Effects have taken the guesswork out of using a compressor, and this makes it much easier to get the kind of compressed tone you are after. It has 2 simple modes to choose from, High and Low.

High - Will give you a 20:1 ratio, meaning it is a squashed highly compressed sound, great for country and funk.

Low - Will give you a 4:1 ratio which is great for Humbuckers or Bass guitars and will even and smooth your tone.

No Battery For Good Reason

The Cali76 is a mains powered pedal only. It doesn't have a 9v battery slot, so that they could use the space for higher grade components, and so that they could have a high-current approach. Higher current will yield purer signal, and true tone!

They've also made the pedal flexible in terms of the voltage it uses. So you can run the pedal on 9v or 18v and this will affect the sound of your compression in quite a big way.

The easiest way to remember it is, if you use it on 18v you will have more headroom and a slightly more 'open' sounding compressor.

Here's What Origin Effects Say About The Cali76

A single combined Attack/Release control takes care of these often misunderstood parameters, guiding you through the most useful combinations while avoiding the less useful ones. Add in a simple high/low ratio switch and you get tons of flexibility without the complexity – instant gratification guaranteed!

The ratio switch provides 4:1 and 20:1 settings. We sourced a number of original 1176 units and chose to match our compression curves to the best sounding unit, which displayed compression curves closely matching those shown in the first Urei manual.

4:1 tends to work best on guitars equipped with humbuckers, as well as bass guitars. The higher ratio setting on the Cali76-C is great for creating pronounced compression effects, such as a country-style squash.

The original Cali76 is a big, beautiful compressor pedal that delivers studio-quality 1176-style compression using discrete Class-A circuitry that’s true to the topology and design philosophy of the original.

Sticking to exactly the same principles, we’ve squeezed this exceptional compressor into a smaller stompbox package that’s more portable and easier to use. Not only do the simplified controls mean you can access a great range of sounds almost instantly, but the 3:1 space saving means this pedal can be housed on even the most congested of pedalboards.

Like all of our Compact Series pedals, the Cali76 Compact features high-current, discrete, Class-A circuitry for transparent, low-noise performance. We’ve taken a no-compromise approach to the circuit design using only the best of modern components.

How do I use instant finance?

It's simple! Just add the products you want to your basket and click the "Checkout" button in your basket. Go through the checkout process and tick the "Finance" option under "Select Your Payment Method". You can then choose which finance term you'd like to apply for, and change your deposit if you wish.

At the end of the checkout you'll be taken to the V12 Finance web site. This is where your finance application is processed. Assuming your application is accepted you'll be able to place your deposit and confirm your order right there.

Then, your order will come through to Andertons and we'll send you the goods. Get approval before 3pm and we'll send your order out the same working day (stock permitting) for next working day delivery!

Who can apply for finance?

You must: spend over £300, be at least 18 years of age, have been a UK resident for 3 years or more, be able to make repayments by Direct Debit, be in regular employment (minimum of 16 hours per week) including self-employment, or in permanent residence with your partner who is in regular employment.

Buy Now Pay Later

If you exercise the buy now pay later option before the end of the non-payment period (deferred period) shown in the agreement, the amount of credit repayable will be the cash price of the item/s, minus the deposit you paid, plus the settlement fee, but you will pay no interest.

If you have not paid this sum in full by that date, interest (at the rate specified above) will be charged from the date we told you your agreement was live.

Should you make a payment during the deferral period, not only will this reduce the amount of interest charged on the remaining balance at the end of the deferral period but it will reduce your monthly repayment over the contracted repayment period. A letter will be sent to you confirming your new monthly repayment.

Please refer to the representative example above for detailed information.

Fantastic pedal! Had no experience with compressors but when I asked about them, a member of staff suggested this one as he uses it himself. Didn’t realise the huge difference it’s made to my rig! After trying out a few compressors, this was definitely the best one!

This pedal simplifies the whole compression process with ease and adds whatever tonal effect you need.
